When Kevin arrived at the flat, Violet was still in shock. He found her on
their bed, beside the telephone, fast asleep. ' That must have been a
bigger shock than I thought to her' thought Kevin. He sat down beside her
and stroked her hair.
Slowly, Violet sat up.
" Hey Vi, are you doing okay."
" Yeah, I just felt a little faint."
" I don't think you should go to the bar tonight." Violet was singing
her second song with, Scottish band, Travis. Their new song, Cool Breeze,
was half-written by Violet herself.
" Kevin, I need to go. The band need me. And I want to show Rach I'm not
just a one-hit-wonder."
" Okay, but I'm going to be there, just in case you still feel faint."
" But I'm fine now, Kevin." Said Violet.
" I'm coming anyway. I like Travis. I saw their recent video of 'Have A
Nice Day' on that music channel we have."
" The Box. You watch The Box?"
" Yeah. I told you, I'm just a big kid." Kevin remembered.
" I remember. Do you remember one of our first dates?"
" You sold me for $250!"
" It was payback time, buddy. That'll be a thing to tell this little
one."
" Don't you dare."
" Why not?"
" Well, I can see the headlines now."
" Really?"
" Yes. ' Songwriter sells future husband to woman in club'."
" Eh? Future Husband? You haven't even proposed to me yet!" joked
Violet.
Kevin got down off the bed and on one knee. He pulled a small, black box
from his jacket pocket, and held it open for Violet to see. " Violet Jane
Sanford, Will you marry me?"
Violet's jaw dropped. " Are you serious? Can we afford it?"
" Yes and yes. Will you marry me?" asked Kevin hopefully.
" Yes! Of course, I will, Dumbo!" Violet patted his head and continued.
" Who else would I marry? It's so beautiful!" Violet gazed down at the
diamond and emerald encrusted ring.
" Is that your only reason? The ring?"
" Don't be silly! I love you!"
" Well, I love you too."
